BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION

1. Field of the Invention

The present invention relates to semiconductor packages, and more particularly, to complex semiconductor packages, each comprising a power module package which comprises a small package performing a different function and having a different electrical capacity than the power module package. The electrical capacity may comprise a voltage-handling capacity, a current-handling capacity, and/or a power-handling capacity.

2. Description of the Related Art

In general, a semiconductor package is fabricated by mounting at least one semiconductor chip on a lead frame or a printed circuit board (PCB), and sealing the semiconductor chips with a sealing resin, and is then used by mounting it on a motherboard or a PCB. As the demand for high-spec electronic devices having high-speed performance, large electrical capacity, and high integration increases, power devices applied to electrical devices are manufactured to be smaller, more lightweight, and multi-functional. For example, power module packages in which a plurality of semiconductor chips are mounted are widely used. Specifically, a power module package includes power semiconductor chips and/or control semiconductor chips.

However, in a power module package, there is a limitation on multi-functionalization due to a limited number of leads, that is, output terminals used to connect to an external device. In addition, there is a limitation on the semiconductor chips that can be included in the power module package, which can prevent various electrical capacities and functions from being obtained.

SUMMARY OF THE INVENTION

The present invention provides complex semiconductor packages, where a small package is packaged in module package (such as a high voltage power module package) for each complex semiconductor package, and methods of fabricating the same.

According to an aspect of the present invention, there is provided a complex semiconductor package where at least one small package is disposed (e.g., mounted) in a larger module package, which may comprise a high voltage power module package. The complex semiconductor package comprises a first package which includes a first packaging substrate, one or more first semiconductor chips disposed on the first packaging substrate, and a first sealing member covering the first semiconductor chips on the first packaging substrate, and at least one second package which is separated from the first packaging substrate, and disposed in the first sealing member, and includes one or more second semiconductor chips.

The complex semiconductor package may further comprise a connecting member disposed in the first sealing member and located separately from the first packaging substrate. The second package is disposed (e.g., mounted) on the connecting member. The connecting member may comprise a printed circuit board (PCB). The first packaging substrate may comprise a direct bond copper (DBC) substrate or an insulated metal substrate (IMS).

The first package may further comprise first leads which are partially exposed by the first sealing member and are electrically connected to the first packaging substrate and second leads which are partially exposed by the first sealing member and electrically connected to the connecting member. The second package may further comprise a second packaging substrate on which the one or more second semiconductor chips are disposed, third and fourth leads electrically connected to the one or more second semiconductor chips, and a second sealing member covering the second semiconductor chips and the second packaging substrate.

The first sealing member may completely cover the second sealing member. The second package may be disposed (e.g., mounted) on a surface of the connecting member and the exposed portion of each of the third and fourth leads is electrically connected to the connecting member. The second package may be disposed (e.g., mounted) on a surface of the connecting member and the exposed portion of each of the third and fourth leads may be exposed by the first sealing member. The second package may comprise a dual in-line type package, and the exposed portion of each of the third and fourth leads may penetrate through the connecting member and is exposed by the first sealing member.

The second package may perform a different function from that of the first package and may have a different electrical capacity from that of the first package, and the first and second packages may be operated independently (such as in separate circuits), or may operate together in a common circuit. The first package may comprise a power module package comprising at least one power semiconductor chip, and the second package may comprise a signal module package comprising a driver IC and a transistor IC. The at least one power semiconductor chip may be electrically connected to the connecting member via a wire formed of Al or Au.

A sealing member covers the packaging substrate excluding a second surface of the packaging substrate opposite to the first surface thereof, the connecting member, the at least one package, and a portion of each of the first and second leads.

According to another aspect of the present invention, there is provided a method of fabricating a complex semiconductor package having one or more first semiconductor chips, one or more second semiconductor chips, a first package, and a second package disposed in the first package. A first molding process is performed to package the one or more second semiconductor chips in the second package.

DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE INVENTION

It will be understood that when a layer or other element is referred to as being “on” another layer or substrate or element, it can be directly on the other layer or substrate or element, or intervening layers and elements may also be present. In the drawings, the thicknesses and sizes of layers, regions, and elements may be exaggerated for clarity, and like reference numerals in the drawings denote like elements. It will also be understood that when an element, such as a layer, a region, a wire, a lead, or a substrate, is referred to as being “on,” “connected to,” “electrically connected to,” “coupled to,” or “electrically coupled to” another element, it may be directly on, connected or coupled to the other element, or one or more intervening elements may be present. In contrast, when an element is referred to as being “directly on,” “directly connected to”, “directly coupled to”, or “directly electrically connected to” another element, there are no intervening elements present. The term “and/or” used herein includes any and all combinations of one or more of the associated listed items.

The terms used herein are for illustrative purposes of the present invention only and should not be construed to limit the meaning or the scope of the present invention. As used in this specification, a singular form may, unless definitely indicating a particular case in terms of the context, include a plural form. Also, the expressions “comprise” and/or “comprising” used in this specification neither define the mentioned shapes, numbers, steps, actions, operations, members, elements, and/or groups of these, nor exclude the presence or addition of one or more other different shapes, numbers, steps, operations, members, elements, and/or groups of these, or addition of these. Spatially relative terms, such as “over,” “above,” “upper,” “under,” “beneath,” “below,” “lower,” and the like, may be used herein for ease of description to describe one element or feature's relationship to another element(s) or feature(s) as illustrated in the figures. It will be understood that the spatially relative terms are intended to encompass different orientations of the device (e.g., package) in use or operation in addition to the orientation depicted in the figures. For example, if the device in the figures is turned over, elements described as “below” or “beneath” or “under” other elements or features would then be oriented “over” or “above” the other elements or features. Thus, the exemplary term “above” may encompass both an above and below orientation.

As used herein, terms such as “first,” “second,” etc. are used to describe various members, components, regions, layers, and/or portions. However, it is obvious that the members, components, regions, layers, and/or portions should not be defined by these terms. The terms are used only for distinguishing one member, component, region, layer, or portion from another member, component, region, layer, or portion. Thus, a first member, component, region, layer, or portion which will be described may also refer to a second member, component, region, layer, or portion, without departing from the scope of the present invention.

The present invention will now be described more fully with reference to the accompanying drawings, in which exemplary embodiments of the invention are shown. The invention may, however, be embodied in many different forms and should not be construed as being limited to the embodiments set forth herein; rather, these embodiments are provided so that this disclosure will be thorough and complete, and will fully convey the concept of the invention to those skilled in the art. In the drawings, the thicknesses of layers and regions are exaggerated for clarity. Like reference numerals in the drawings denote like elements.

As compared with the conventional power module package 100 and the inverter module package 200 driving a motor with high voltage power supplied from the power module package 100 that are individually disposed (e.g., mounted) on a motherboard or a PCB substrate, a complex semiconductor package according to the present invention can decrease a number of components, thereby reducing total thickness of the package, can perform various functions and can have various electrical capacities within one package. Also, the first package and the second package can be simultaneously or independently driven (e.g., the first and second packages may operate together in a common circuit, or may operate in separate circuits).

FIG. 5 is a flowchart illustrating a method of fabricating a complex semiconductor package 300, according to an exemplary embodiment of the present invention. Referring to FIGS. 4A-4C, and 5, first and second semiconductor chips 120, 221, and 225 are obtained (S510). The semiconductor chips may be received from an outside vendor or manufactured. The second semiconductor chips 221 and 225 are disposed (e.g., mounted) on the lead frame 210, and then a first molding process is performed to form the second sealing member 230 exposing a portion of each of the third and fourth leads 241 and 245 (S520). Therefore, the semiconductor chips 221 and 225 are packaged to form the second package 200. The first semiconductor chips 120 are disposed (e.g., mounted) on the packaging substrate 110 (S530).

Then, the connecting member 310, such as a PCB substrate, is provided (S540). The second package 200 is disposed (e.g., mounted) on the connecting member 310 in a surface mounting manner or a dual in-line packaging manner (S550). The connecting member 310 is separate from the packaging substrate 110, and the first and second leads 341 and 345 are disposed with respect to the first packaging substrate 110 and the connecting member 310. A bonding process is performed so that the first leads 341 are electrically connected to the top conductive layer 111 of the packaging substrate, the second leads 345 are electrically connected to the connecting member 310, and the connecting member 310 is electrically connected to the first semiconductor chips 120 via wires 343 formed of a conductive material, such as Al or Au (S560).

Then, a second molding process is performed to form the first sealing member 330 covering the packaging substrate 110 (excluding the bottom conductive layer 115), the connecting member 310, the wires 343, the second package 200, and a portion of each of the first and second leads 341 and 345 (S570). Accordingly, the first package, within which the second package is packaged, is manufactured, thereby completing the manufacture of the complex semiconductor package 300. Operations S510-S560 may be modified when required.

An exemplary complex semiconductor package according to the present invention includes at least one small package packaged in a larger package, where the larger package may comprise a high voltage-capacity and/or high current-capacity power module package. Therefore, packages performing various functions and having various electrical capacities can be disposed (e.g., mounted) in a single package. Therefore, a complex semiconductor package according to the present invention can perform various functions and have various electrical capacities, and the number of components used for the fabrication can be reduced, and the mounting rate can be increased.

Also, output terminals of the small package are exposed to the outside, independently from output terminals of the large-capacity high voltage power module package. Therefore, the number of output terminals can be increased, and thus, the complex semiconductor package can be formed to be small in size and multifunctional. When the small package is sealed with an epoxy molding compound, that is, a sealing member of the large-capacity high voltage power module package, the complex semiconductor package can generate less noise than when the large-capacity high voltage power module package and the small package are individually mounted on a motherboard or a PCB.

Any recitation of “a”, “an”, and “the” is intended to mean one or more unless specifically indicated to the contrary.
